What Are You Reading? On Monday's Access Utah

UPR listeners are curious about everything. We're always wanting to learn something fascinating. That's why we're avid readers. Periodically we come together on Access Utah to build a UPR Book List, and we're going to do it again on Monday. So we're asking: What are you reading? We're looking for everything from fiction, non-fiction, and classic literature to young adult and children's books. It might even be a textbook or manual that you can recommend. You can email your list to us right now at upraccess@gmail.com

Join us on Monday at 9:00 a.m. when Tom Williams will be joined by UPR member and avid reader, Elaine Thatcher, and several Utah booksellers. Phone lines will be open for you during the hour at 1-800-826-1495. You can also join us on Twitter @utahpublicradio. We'll share your list on-air and post our joint UPR Book List on our website.
